Anyone else ok with "good enough"
#272
I don't think there is anything wrong with "good enough"...
After all, I don't quilt or sew anything for anyone or any show... won't be happening. It would take all the fun out of it for me..
I am in the process of finishing up a "good enough" quilt for "me".... I love it, I don't worry what anyone else might think and it's me..

I'm definitely not a perfectionist. I do the best I can. I have problems with my hands so it is very difficult for me to rip out stitches. Therefore, I let things pass that others would not. I sew for my sanity and so "good enough" is always "good enough" for me. :wink:

I'm still learning, and prefer to think of myself as a life-long learner. It's certainly a gradual process - I've been sewing forever and quilting a little for almost as long. I try to make each effort better than the previous, and I'm always looking for better ways of doing things. If something is not too difficult or too risky to fix, I will fix it. There will always be problems that will bug me, but I don't have any difficulty moving on from my far-from-perfect creations. Otherwise, I would probably have given it up long ago.
